Crown to the Parents..

The Messenger of Allaah (peace be upon him) said: "Whoever recited the Qur'aan, learned and acted according to it, his parents will be given a crown to wear on the Day of Resurrection that it's light will be like the light of the sun. They will also be clothed in two garments of which there is nothing like in this world. The 2 parents will say, 'Why are we being dressed like this?' So it will be said, 'Due to your son/daughter taking hold of the Qur'aan.'"

 

 

--Reported by Al-Haakim who said it is Sahih according to the conditions of Imaam Muslim. Graded hasan by Albaani in Sahih ut-Targheeb.

Hadith of the Day

'Abdullah ibn 'Amr said:

 "A man came to the Prophet (peace be upon him) and made a pledge to him that he would do hijra. He left his parents who were in tears. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, 'Go back to them and make them laugh as you made them weep.'"

--Bukhari; Adab Al-Mufrad, 6 #13

Kindness Towards Parents

Narrated 'Abdullah: I asked the Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) "Which deed is the dearest to Allah?" He replied, "To offer the prayers at their early stated fixed times." I asked, "What is the next [in goodness]?" He replied, "To be good and dutiful to your parents" I again asked, "What is the next [in goodness]?" He replied, "To participate in Jihaad (struggling) in Allah's cause." Abdullah added, I asked only that much and if I had asked more, the Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) would have told me more." ~  Sahih Bukhari [1.505][8:1]
